Manuel de Falla Museum

Museum

15 minutes away

Between the Carmen de los Mártires and the Hotel Alhambra Palace is the house where the composer Manuel de Falla, a native of Cadiz, lived from 1921 until the end of the Spanish Civil War.
De Falla died in self-imposed exile in Argentina, but since then his friends have painstakingly restored and redecorated the house, to provide an image of how it was in the days when De Falla and his friend Lorca organized the first Flamenco Singing Contest in 1922.
The Museum is open from 10am to 2pm, every day except Mondays and holidays.

Sierra Nevada

Recreation

20 minutes away

It is a popular tourist destination, as its high peaks make skiing possible in one of Europe's most southerly ski resorts, in an area along the Mediterranean Sea predominantly known for its warm temperatures and abundant sunshine.

Federico Garcia Lorca House - Museum

Museum

15 minutes away

The Huerta de San Vicente was the summer home of the Garcia Lorca family from 1926 to 1936.
Federico Garcia Lorca wrote here some of his main works and spent the days just previous to his arrest and asassination at the onset of the Spanish Civil War.
Opened to the public as a House-Museum in 1995, today the Huerta de San Vicente is a living cultural center within the city of Granada.

Realejo

Historical Landmark

15 minutes away

In this quarter of Granada, at the foot of the southern tip of the Alhambra, lies the Campo del Príncipe, the "field of the Prince", a spacious plaza created by the Catholic Monarchs for the celebration of the wedding of their short-lived son Prince Juan. In the summertime it is a high point of Granada's night life, with many taverns serving drinks and tapas in the open air.
Just up the slope from the Campo del Príncipe is the pretty church of San Cecilio, patron saint of Granada. It is crowned, in this photo, by the flamboyant Hotel Alhambra Palace, built at the beginning of the 20th century by a wealthy aristocrat to lodge his friend King Alphonse XIII during their hunting parties.
You can visit Santo Domingo Church too:
It is no coincidence that this half-forgotten church was built with the tombstones of Granada's Moorish cemeteries. The Dominican Order had been the driving force of the Reconquest and the expulsion of heretics (Jews and Muslims) from the peninsula - ever since Saint Dominic, travelling through France in the 13th century, witnessed the Pope's armies exterminating the Cathars and requested that they extend their activities south of the Pyrenees, thus launching the Spanish Inquisition.

Alcaicerias

Shopping

10 minutes away

This is now taken up with souvenir shops but it was once a great bazaar where silk was made and sold. Alcaicería literally means either the "house of Caesar" or "belonging to Caesar" in recognition of the fact that Emperor Justinian granted the Moors permission to sell silk. Traditionally these bazaars were situated in the centre of a city, with inns where the merchants could stay, and with gates at all the entrances to guard against looting and which were closed at night. The narrow streets inside were then patrolled by watchmen.
